Preface
[The preface contains an explanation of the subject matter explained in this class: what it does for Eve,
how it can affect a player’s options and possibilities within the game, etcetera. It does not explain how it
is done, that is what the rest of the document. Rather, this should aim to illustrate how this subject fits
into the game, and the New Eden virtual environment.]

Class contents
Introduction
This class will introduce you to Eve University and tell you most things you need to know. It will cover
lots of stuff, including what the uni gives you (skillbooks, modules), what chat channels we use, who the
important people are, what classes you can take and what we do during war. And just to balance things,
it will cover what NOT to do. This class won’t necessarily give full details on every topic (we’ll try) but at
the very least will let you know where to look.

Corp Mail. Your in game email. Super critical. Contains a lot of emails covering important topics.
The ones you should read , all from the ‘Unversity Voice’ user are:
o New Member Homework
o Teamspeak/Forum Registration
o Mentor Program
Website (http://www.eve-ivy.com) contains a number of resources including
o News (which appears in RP format on the front page)
o Important documents like policies, code of conduct
o Links to various eve resources and website
o Staff list
o The ingame version of the website contains the corp DEFCON level. More about that
later.
Forums (http://www.eve-ivy.com/forum)
o Huge amounts of information here. Start with the consolidated information post.
o Search works. Please use it.
o PM system – directors get a LOT of eve mail. Often it’s easier to get their attention
sending a PM through the forums.
o Calendar – drop down this week. Times almost always GMT (eve time). Good to respond
to the thread and sign up to indicate numbers/interest.
o Hi and Bye Forum – Post here as part of getting Freshman title.
o Ship Setups – combine with search. Better alternative to Eve-O forums. Generally good
setups and lots that are intended for lower SPs. Very high SP/T2/Faction setups at
scrapheap challenge.
o Work Fair – when you’re ready to move on this can be a good place to start.
Killboard (http://ivy.griefwatch.net)
o Kills and losses posted here. Password to post a loss (please post your PVP losses) is
killer.
Classes, Training and the Calendar
University events and classes are almost always posted in the Forums on the Calendar.
http://www.eve-ivy.com/forum/calendar.php

Events will include the date and time. This will almost always be Eve Time (GMT) so remember to
convert events to your timezone.
Hangars, Ships, Modules and Skillbooks
EU maintains programs to assist new players. Modules and skillbooks are stored in the corp hangars in
the HQ station (Korsiki VII SAK).
Hangars – are divided by member level (Freshman, Student). You must have the freshman title to access
the hangars. If you’re new and don’t have it yet, ask in corp chat, someone can usually get you what you
need or buy it using the ‘skillbook wallet’, which students can access.
The hangars are also divided and sorted into containers by type so you’ll find ammo in a different
container to low-slot armor modules. Modules are kept in locked stacks. It’s critical that you re-lock a
stack when you take something. Audit logs capture when something is unlocked. If you don’t re-lock we
can’t tell who did what and you will be warned. Once.
Donations go to the ‘Sorting Hangar’. You won’t be able to see contents, but you can just drag stuff onto
it and it will get to the right people.


We do not pirate or grief
We do not scam or steal
o That goes double for EUni students and staff. We have some noobs, that’s our business.
Don’t prey on them.
We don’t talk smack. Especially no talk in local during fleet ops.
Generally, just don’t be an ass.
A lot of the policies are related to the fact that we’re a neutral training entity. Causing a diplomatic
incident is not appreciated by anyone and creates lots of work and headaches.

To claim your title, join the new 'EU TITLES' maling list, and post at least one example of you fulfilling the
requirements for Freshman and Student, or three in the case of Graduate.
Note that for those returning from another corp, you can move directly to the appropriate title.
Medical Clones, Jump Clones
This is your ‘backup body’ that you return to when your active clone is killed (podded). The medical
clone ha a location and a skill point level. The skill point level always needs to be above your current
skill points. When you are podded, your first task should be to update your medical clone to ensure you
don’t lose skill points.
A jump clone is a ‘separate body’ that you can transfer yourself to. This works immediately no matter
where you currently are and where your jump clone is. Once you have a jump clone, think of it as having
two bodies, each of them in a different location that you can switch between once per day. Each of
them has it’s own set of implants, meaning that a lot of people keep an implant-free jump clone at
Korsiki for wars. Note that each jump clone must have it’s own medical backup clone. You need to keep
them up to date on both (or however many you have) clones.
To get a Jump Clone, you need standings of 8 with a corp. Eve Uni has that so the process of getting one
is:
1.
Train the Infomorph Psycology skill. (Science group)
2.
Travel to either:
a.
Akonoinen - VI - WPC Logistics Support
b.
Isikano - IX - Moon 11 - WPC Logistics Support
c.
Erenta - V - WPC Logistics Support
d.
Khanid Prime - V - Moon 1 Khanid Innovation Factory
3.
DO NOT ask any of the agents for a mission.
9|Introduction into Eve University

4.
Open the Medical Interface and purchase a Jump Clone.
5.
Travel somewhere else, then jump back to the new clone.
7.
The old body is now a jumpclone.
8.
Repeat after 24 hours.
HQ
HQ is Korsiki VII SAK in the Forge, which is a good location for industrialists and caldari mission runners.
It’s also quite close to Jita, lowsec and 0.0.
Mission running sticky
Link to hauling info
<Hauling Discussion>
Refining, Research, Production
The POS has 30 'Material Research' (ME) and 30 'Time Efficency' slots (PE) available.
The cost is currently 6,000 ISK per hour with no install cost, however please do not use more than 4 slots
each, and limit all research to no more than 14 days or one research level, whichever is higher.
Full details on using the POS are here:
Sticky
Remember: Under no circumstances should you ever deliver any research jobs yourself. We have a full
audit trial of who does what, and deliverying jobs must be left to the appropriate people.
There are quite a few folks in Eve Uni who have perfect refine. Ask in corp chat, there will almost always
be someone out there who can help.
War
Announced through CONCORD eve mail “<name> has declared war on” (24 hours notice)
A war declaration will always followed up through a forum post and a change to the University DEFCON
level.
This will also usually be followed up with a post announcing policies and procedures for this war. This
post (usually by Silentbrick) is the law. It overrides any other previous posts. It’s critical that you read it.
Often there will be Teamspeak based war prepration classes.
Subscribe to IVY Intel (war target lists).

ability to use Nanofiber?s to increase your speed.

High Speed Maneuvering I
Mechanic I
Hull Upgrades I
Politics
Our directors and diplomats do an incredible job of maintaining our reputation, fixing sticky situations,
defusing wardecs and anything else that needs attention. (diplomat: Irdalth Delrar)
Neutrality is a big deal to us. Part of ensuring our neutrality is treating 0.0 space very carefully. Current
policy of EU is that students are forbidden from 0.0 space unless authorised by a director. Silentbrick will
occasionally run rampages or other events. Wait for those. This includes wormhole access.
Please stay out of COAD and other forum Eve Uni threads. Even with your alts.
